  • Title: Plant concepts for mineral acquisition and allocation.
    Author: Hell R, Hillebrand H.
    Journal: Curr Opin Biotechnol; 2001 Apr; 12(2):161-8. PubMed ID: 11287231.
    Abstract:
    Plant biotechnology is expected to make a major contribution to the steady increase of crop production in the near future. The improvement of mineral assimilation has to meet the challenges of reducing fertilizer application in developed countries, preserving the environment, enabling sustainable agriculture management and generating low-input crops with increased performance in areas where soil infertility limits productivity. Natural genetic resources and engineered plants will help to achieve the implementation of traits for improved mineral assimilation.
